Foam speaker surrounds do not last forever, especially for my 2000 3ooM with 35,000 miles. In the past month the foam surrounds tore away from the speaker baskets on both 5 1/2 inch front door speakers. This is not due to abuse. They just plain wore out. Foam surrounds weaken with age. Until...

I just read a post and several replies about poor gas mileage in a Neon. I have a '01 PT Cruiser with 30,000 miles on it. I just did the "recommended 30,000 miles spark plug replacement". I still feel lucky if once in 50 fill ups I get 17 mpg. 4 cylinder, auto, sticker rated at 22/27...

Sat in a Magnum today. How the heck do people see out of them. Traffic lights would require ducking and the back.... forget. Anyone here buy one yet?

One of the bulbs in the AM/FM Cassette unit in my 1998 Dodge Stratus has burned out. Can a do-it-yourselfer change it, or should I take it to a consumer electroncs repair facility? I changed one of the bulbs in the HVAC control panel. It wasn't bad once I figured out how to take it apart. Thanks,
